Although gas storage facilities are well stocked, the Federal Energy Agency believes there are still risks to energy supplies during the coming winter. After the interruption of gas supplies from Russia, Germany has secured other stable sources of supply, such as liquid gas.

"However, it would still be premature to give a clear warning signal," said Klaus Muller, President of the Federal Energy Agency, to the "Neue Osnabrucker Zeitung" newspaper.

Among the dangers is a very cold winter in Europe. In addition, Russian President Vladimir Putin may turn off the gas tap for Southeast Europe. Also, the possibility of attacks on gas pipelines is a possible scenario that evokes horror.

Again a call for savings

Germany's gas storage facilities are currently about 90 percent full - significantly more than last summer. In addition, both industry and households have reduced their gas consumption. Germany also receives less gas that has to go through pipelines to other countries, Muller said.
